Got mine a lil while ago as well. Unsure I'll keep Pro but I have wanted a Chromecast Ultra for a while and I'll probably keep this around somewhat to have Destiny on my work PC. If it works well enough, that is.

If anyone wants to add some folk I'm Snarf on there.

If I click unsubscribe on my Stadia Pro subscription, do I get to use it for the next 3 months? Just trying to disable the recurring payments. Definitely not going to pay for Pro.

I've only been to the Tower and Tribute Hall (cross save works fine) but yes, better and I was Pro + SSD. Just playing with Trackpad+KB for novelty lol. Pretty crazy how a few minutes ago I was waiting for the code and now I'm running around Destiny in my browser lol.

The default keyboard controls for Samurai Showdown are absolute madness.

And that's not the number pad -- that's the top row of keys on the keyboard. And you can't change the menu configuration keys.

I couldn't imagine playing any fighting game via keyboard. I still have an old wired xbox360 controller that will hopefully work

Also just put your numlock key on and you should be able to use the number pad

Honestly it plays pretty great. I've been futzing with this and Destiny 2 and it feels very natural with mouse and keyboard with surprisingly little input lag. Also works great with my XBO Elite controller.

On my Pixel 3a's a little different. A bit more input lag, but the video feed looks very clean.

Is there any prep work that needs to be completed before using cross save?

Didn't get my stadia yet. Friday. But got my code

redeemed destiny and samurai showdown
Only game I'm interested is Gylt. Is it 4k60? The stadia test in my phone showed me 250mb WiFi optimal. Should get twice as that with the Chromecast and tomorrow I'll try my laptop surface
Stopped the pro abonnement already so I will use this 3 month and see

anybody add me ?BoomT

Plays extremely well on my PC. Tried jumping into destiny 2 after having not played for years.

...

What's happening. It's going to take me a while to orient myself. Went to the Moon and everything is immune to me but my keyboard and mouse had -no perceptible delay'. I'm excited for my controllers + 4k OLED tomorrow :D i know it's not as good as the best 4k but it'll be better than my current non pro ps4!

Oh did xcloud release? How's it playing, has anyone put up reviews or anything that talks about performance? I'm really curious about how it feels compared to Stadia. So far stadia is really impressive

I popped open DMC5 in xcloud last night on my phone with 5Ghz wifi and a 300Mbit connection (200~ in practice) and the lag in the menus and loading times were incredible enough for me to have to stop because I didn't want to try to customize my gear before the level. I haven't tried xcloud on PC, but I've had better luck with Geforce Now on my phone.

How do you stop the recurring pro payment?

Ah that's unfortunate. But I just looked it up and it's still in beta right? Is there an NDA? I'm wondering why it's hard to find impressions.

Would be nice to get a side by side comparasion of all the streaming services under the same conditions to see how they all hold up.

XCloud right now runs on Xbox One S server blades and renders at 720p. Definitely will probably improve in the future but that's where it's at right now.

Just tried samurai showdown on my laptop surface

It's very impressive. Didn't notice much lag. Really responsive. I can't play any game with my
Surface pro .... so im really impressed.

It could turn out really great actually. Waiting my founder to try on tv.
Big I have one BIG MAJOR issue. All my system are in English. But my stadia is in French. I hate game in French. Any way to change ?

Glad to see people are enjoying it. For those reporting experience you should check this out and report back:

GCPing.com

Measure latency to Google Cloud regions
www.gcping.com www.gcping.com

If possible from the same device as you are testing Stadia but at minimum from the same connection (WiFi vs wired, etc)

Here are some tidbits in my short time with the service.

Switching controllers whilst playing Destiny changes the button prompts in game to the correct controller official icons, including those of the Nintendo switch pro controller AND the dualshock 4.

Playing Destiny using the pro controller's FAR superior triggers and HD rumble is bliss.

None beyond what you usually do. I already had it set up for Xbox <--> PS4, and just went to the page and added Stadia. Opened Chrome, loaded Stadia and opened D2. Logged in fine. The cross save option is on Bungie.net under your profile avatar on the top right.

Played some Destiny 2 via chrome since my kit won't be here until Thursday now. Didn't really notice any latency issues, played great. Load times were about the same as they are on external SSD on my xbox but not as fast as my nvme drive in my pc.

Graphic quality is definitely below the X, it's instantly noticeable the second you see your character on the select screen and it's kind of a bummer.

My PS4 account has less options that Stadia, do you know if it will use the rights that are associated to the platform?

i.e let's say the PS4 account did not have shadowfall

Snuck in a few minutes before class to play both in a browser and it is pretty amazing. Even takes my 360 buttons as the tutorial prompts

Surprisingly, it gives you a warning when you launch telling you to link your Stadia account at bungie.net before proceeding. Did so and it worked flawlessly for me.
